Jimmy just toast the Giannis-less Bucks together with the whole Heat squad. While the Lakers put on a team effort to take a 15-0 run late in the 4th to secure the W in game 1. Not to mention, Rui and Reaves' incredible performances. Now, the Memphis are really in trouble as Morant's status in game 2 is questionable. IMO, if they lose 0-2 with their homecourt, the Memphis will either get swept or absolutely gonna lose the series, there will be no coming back for them based on the performances we've seen in game 1 for the both teams.
And with this win, it makes this first round very exciting. Also in the Suns vs Clippers we still have WB vs Durant and then maybe him and Booker as well as too are both trash talkers. It's just 1 game though, a lot can still happen, at least there will be no sweep in their series.
Both Lakers and Heat take that advantage to win the game, for sure whoever in that position will take that and will not let
that opportunity to pass.
It's exciting since visiting teams win over the home team a good sign that we may see more games in between those teams.
Will add more entertainment for the fans if by chance each series will extend to the final do-or-die game.
